The only problem I have now in D3D is that the shadows of the car are
corrupt sometimes. 1 second all is ok, the next second the shadows
look very grainy.
It's not a big problem, but it would be nice if this can be fixed..

Yes but that's with a GF3, and I believe the newer drivers only show
an increase in performance on GF3 cards, not on GF2 cards.
And the last days I'm reading here about how newer versions user more
and more system resources, apperantly causing conflicts with other
hardware/drivers who are trying to claim the same resources.
I tried some of those 2x.xx drivers in the past but never really got
better results, the reason why I stick to the 12.90 drivers.
Damn confusing, this driver mess we're in :-/

In know the 7.52/7.58 is the ones alot of people were having shadow problems
in N4 with in D3D, but beyond that I'm not really sure.

Hope so then you have an idea how to fix it. :) Might want to use the
driver info to check and make sure all the driver files are 12.90 maybe
there is a rouge 7.58 file*** around.

At the back of the pack with 43 AI cars in front of me:
D3d: 35fps
OpenGL texture -1: 25fps
OpenGL texture 100: 4fps
I have a P3 500 GF2.. perhaps my cpu is too slow for OpenGL with
texture set at 100?

Just weird that I get 4-5fps in OpenGL while getting 30 in d3d, while
I read everywhere that OpenGL is supposed to be faster..
